Animal Help Now

With Easter almost here, we join animal advocates nationwide in encouraging people to choose gifts other than live animals for children this Easter. Rabbits, ducks and chicks are poor choices as gifts because they require specialized care that many families are unprepared or unable to give. Like shelter workers, who report an uptick in surrenders of these animals after Easter when the novelty wears off, wildlife rehabilitators frequently report having to field calls about animals like these who are left to fend for themselves in the wild. Choose plush toys or candy animals as gifts, and consider a holiday outing to a farmed animal or wildlife sanctuary for children who are interested in spending time with live animals.
